Katherine Jackson Tricked Into Long Break?

Katherine Jackson has suggested she was tricked into blocking communication with her grandchildren recently.

Katherine Jackson has suggested she was tricked into blocking communication with her grandchildren recently.

Katherine made the claim when she filed a declaration as part of her attempt to obtain co-guardianship over Michael Jackson's children Prince, Paris, and Blanket.

In the documents, she says she was scheduled to go on a road trip to New Mexico to watch her sons in concert - but on July 14 an unnamed doctor showed up to her house and told her it was better for her to take a plane instead.

Katherine says she obliged however when she got off the plane she found herself in Tucson, where she had been set up at a luxury resort.

According to her lawyer: ''Her children took her to a spa ... because she had high blood pressure.''

When she got to the resort, Katherine says her phone and iPad were taken away and her in-room telephone was disconnected. She also says her TV had sound but no picture so she didn't realise she was reported missing.

Katherine reports: ''At the time, I trusted the people I was with to be honest with me.''

The declaration contradicts statements Katherine previously made in an interview with ABC News, when she called her sudden absence last month a ''short vacation.''

During the interview, Katherine said: ''One reason I didn't call is I just gave up my phone and I didn't want to have any phone calls while I was here.''
